From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 322

Chapter 322: Chapter 186: I Didn’t Lift a Finger, I Just Nodded

After President Li learned about Su Chen’s relationship with the owner of the mould processing factory, he beat his chest and promised that they wouldn’t have to move. He even offered to transfer some of his own factory’s orders to Chen Peng.

Su Chen agreed with this idea. Everyone had their own path to walk. Since his third brother had chosen the path of running a factory, he should be allowed to continue on it.

Su Chen’s appearance shouldn’t make him feel like he could get something for nothing. That wasn’t Su Chen’s original intention.

If he couldn’t even handle a golden opportunity handed to him on a silver platter, he might as well go home and plant sweet potatoes.

Su Chen checked the time. It was almost eleven-thirty, so he beckoned toward President Li.

President Li, who had been waiting to be summoned, immediately jogged over when he saw Su Chen’s gesture. Manager Wang, who was standing nearby, saw this and followed him.

"Mr. Su~" President Li was no longer as stiff as before, and his voice carried a hint of ease.

Meanwhile, Manager Wang, trailing behind him, was a nervous wreck. ’I wonder how Mr. Su plans to deal with me.’

"Let’s find a place to have lunch. You can have a good chat with my third brother later."

A flash of pleasant surprise crossed President Li’s eyes when he heard this. He naturally understood the meaning behind Su Chen’s words. ’It seems what I said earlier actually worked.’

"Coincidentally, a friend of mine owns a top-tier private kitchen nearby. Let’s go there."

After speaking, President Li thought of Manager Wang standing behind him and asked tentatively, "Mr. Su, how about we invite Manager Wang along? He’s in charge of the industrial park, and they’ve had plenty of dealings before. He’s a familiar face, which will make things easier down the line!"

Hearing this, Manager Wang, who was standing behind him, was incredibly moved. ’President Li is a true friend!’ His heart leaped into his throat, however. Whether or not he could escape this disaster all depended on Su Chen’s answer.

Su Chen gave President Li a meaningful look. ’So he gets to be the good guy, which makes me the bad guy, is that it?’

Still, President Li had a point. It’s like they say: give a slap, then offer a sweet. After scaring the man half to death, it was probably right to let him have a meal and calm down.

Even if Su Chen had him removed, someone else would just take his place. Rather than deal with a stranger, it was better to let Manager Wang continue in his role. At least now he understood who not to offend.

"Fine, he can come," Su Chen said, glancing at Manager Wang.

Hearing this, Manager Wang’s face bloomed into a wide smile. He bowed repeatedly to Su Chen, thanking him. "Thank you, Mr. Su! Thank you, Mr. Su!"

Chen Peng, standing to the side, was completely bewildered. ’It’s just lunch, why is he getting so worked up?’

Fu Qiaoyu, on the other hand, had a thoughtful expression on her face.

Soon, two cars pulled up to the factory gate: a Bentley and a BMW.

The Bentley was, of course, President Li’s car. Su Chen got in, chatting and laughing with him. As for Chen Peng and Fu Qiaoyu, they got into Manager Wang’s BMW. The two cars slowly drove out of the industrial park.

「In the BMW.」

Manager Wang was incredibly enthusiastic, a world of difference from his previous cold demeanor. It was so drastic that Chen Peng and his wife found it a bit overwhelming at first.

But the couple was no match for a veteran like Manager Wang. After a bit of conversation, the distance between them closed considerably, and by the end of the ride, laughter could be heard from the car.

The private kitchen President Li had chosen was called Su Yin, and it also served Huaiyang cuisine.

As soon as they walked in, the "owner friend" President Li had mentioned came forward to greet them. After a brief exchange of pleasantries with President Li, he led Su Chen’s group to the most luxurious private room.

President Li took the menu and flipped through it briefly before turning to Su Chen beside him. "Does Mr. Su have any dietary restrictions?"

"Order whatever. As long as it’s good," Su Chen said with a faint smile.

President Li nodded at his words and proceeded to order a dozen dishes, all of them signature classics of Huaiyang cuisine, like the Braised Pork Ball in Crab Roe and Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish that Su Chen had eaten in Suzhou before.
